Helpful hints and tips

Sorting out the laundry

Follow the wash code symbols on each garment label and

the manufacturer’s washing instructions. Sort the laundry

as follows: whites, coloureds, synthetics, delicates, wool-

lens.

Before loading the laundry

Never wash whites and coloureds together. Whites may

lose their whiteness in the wash.

New coloured items may run in the first wash; they should

therefore be washed separately the first time.

Button up pillowcases, close zip fasteners, hooks and

poppers. Tie any belts or long tapes.

Remove persistent stains before washing.

Rub particularly soiled areas with a special detergent or

detergent paste.

Treat curtains with special care. Remove hooks or tie them

up in a bag or net.

Removing stains

Stubborn stains may not be removed by just water and de-

tergent. It is therefore advisable to treat them prior to

washing.

Blood: treat fresh stains with cold water. For dried stains,

soak overnight in water with a special detergent then rub

in the soap and water.

Oil based paint: moisten with benzine stain remover, lay

the garment on a soft cloth and dab the stain; treat several

times.

Dried grease stains: moisten with turpentine, lay the gar-

ment on a soft surface and dab the stain with the fingertips

and a cotton cloth.

Rust: oxalic acid dissolved in hot water or a rust removing

product used cold. Be careful with rust stains which are

not recent since the cellulose structure will already have

been damaged and the fabric tends to hole.

Mould stains: treat with bleach, rinse well (whites and fast

coloureds only).

9

www.zanussi.com

Grass: soap lightly and treat with bleach (whites and fast

coloureds only).

Ball point pen and glue: moisten with acetone

1)

, lay the

garment on a soft cloth and dab the stain.

Lipstick: moisten with acetone as above, then treat stains

with methylated spirits. Treat any residual marks with

bleach.

Red wine: soak in water and detergent, rinse and treat with

acetic or citric acid, then rinse. Treat any residual marks

with bleach.

Ink: depending on the type of ink, moisten the fabric first

with acetone

1)

, then with acetic acid; treat any residual

marks on white fabrics with bleach and then rinse thor-

oughly.

Tar stains: first treat with stain remover, methylated spirits

or benzine, then rub with detergent paste.

Detergents and additives

Good washing results also depend on the choice of deter-

gent and use of the correct quantities to avoid waste and

protect the environment.

Although biodegradable, detergents contain substances

which, in large quantities, can upset the delicate balance

of nature.

The choice of detergent will depend on the type of fabric

(delicates, woollens, cottons, etc.), the colour, washing

temperature and degree of soiling.

All commonly available washing machine detergents may

be used in this appliance:

• powder detergents for all types of fabric

• powder detergents for delicate fabrics (60°C max) and

woollens

• liquid detergents, preferably for low temperature wash

programmes (60°C max) for all types of fabric, or spe-

cial for woollens only.

The detergent and any additives must be placed in the ap-

propriate compartments of the dispenser drawer before

starting the wash programme.

If using liquid detergents, a programme without prewash

must be selected.

Your appliance incorporates a recirculation system which

allows an optimal use of the concentrated detergent.

Follow the product manufacturer’s recommendations on

quantities to use and do not exceed the «MAX» mark in

the detergent dispenser drawer.

Quantity of detergent to be used

The type and quantity of detergent will depend on the type

of fabric, load size, degree of soiling and hardness of the

water used.

Follow the product manufacturers’ instructions on quanti-

ties to use.

Use less detergent if:

• you are washing a small load

• the laundry is lightly soiled

• large amounts of foam form during washing.

Degrees of water hardness

Water hardness is classified in so-called “degrees” of

hardness. Information on hardness of the water in your

area can be obtained from the relevant water supply com-

pany, or from your local authority. If the water hardness

degree is medium or high we suggest you to add a water

softener following always the manufacturer’s instructions.

When the degree of hardness is soft, readjust the quantity

of the detergent.

First use

• Ensure that the electrical and water connections

comply with the installation instructions.

• Remove the polystyrene block and any material

from the drum.

• Pour 2 litres of water into the main wash com-

partment

of the detergent drawer in order to

activate the ECO valve. Then run a cotton cycle at

the highest temperature without any laundry in

the machine, to remove any manufacturing resi-

due from the drum and tub. Pour 1/2 a measure

of detergent into the main wash compartment and

start the machine.

1) do not use acetone on artificial silk

Care and cleaning

Warning! You must DISCONNECT the appliance

from the electricity supply, before you can carry out

any cleaning or maintenance work.

Descaling

The water we use normally contains lime. It is a good idea

to periodically use a water softening powder in the ma-

chine. Do this separately from any laundry washing, and

according to the softening powder manufacturer's instruc-

tions. This will help to prevent the formation of lime de-

posits.

External cleaning

Clean the exterior cabinet of the appliance with soap and

water only, and then dry thoroughly.

Cleaning the dispenser drawer

The washing powder and additive dispenser drawer

should be cleaned regularly.

Remove the drawer by

pressing the catch down-

wards and by pulling it

out. Flush it out under a

tap, to remove any traces

of accumulated powder.

To aid cleaning, the top

part of the additive com-

partment should be re-

moved.

Cleaning the drawer recess

Having removed the draw-

er, use a small brush to

clean the recess, ensuring

that all washing powder

residue is removed from

the upper and lower part of

the recess.

Replace the drawer and run the rinse programme with-

out any clothes in the drum.

Cleaning the pump

The pump should be inspected regularly and particularly

if:

• the appliance does not empty and/or spin;

• the appliance makes an unusual noise during draining

due to objects such as safety pins, coins etc. blocking

the pump;

• a problem with water draining is detected (see chapter

“What to do if...” for more details).

Warning! Before opening the pump door, switch the

appliance off and remove the mains plug from the

socket.

Proceed as follows:

• Unplug the appliance.

• If it is necessary, wait until the water has cooled down.

Place a container close to

the pump (A) to collect

any spillage.

Pull out the emergency

emptying hose (B), place it

in the container and re-

move its cap.

When no more water comes out, unscrew the pump

cover by turning it anti-clockwise and remove the filter.

Use pliers, if necessary. Always keep a rag nearby to

dry up any water spillage when removing the cover.

Clean the filter under a tap, to remove any traces of fluff.

13

www.zanussi.com

Remove foreign bodies

and fluff from the filter seat

and from the pump impel-

ler.

Check carefully whether

the pump impeller rotates

(it rotates jerkily). If it

doesn’t rotate, please con-

tact your Service Centre.

Put the cap back on the

emergency emptying hose

and place the latter back in

its seat.

Replace the filter into the

pump by inserting it cor-

rectly into the special

guides. Screw the pump

cover firmly by turning it

clockwise.

Caution! When the appliance is in use and

depending on the programme selected there can be

hot water in the pump.

Never remove the pump cover during a wash cycle, always

wait until the appliance has finished the cycle, and is

empty. When refitting the pump cover, ensure it is

securely re-tightened so as to stop leaks and young

children being able to remove it.

Cleaning the water inlet filters

Important! If the appliance doesn't fill, takes long to fill

with water, the starting button blinks yellow or the display

(if available) shows the relevant alarm (see chapter "What

to do if..." for more details), check if the water inlet filters

are blocked .

To clean the water inlet filters:

• Turn off the water tap.

• Unscrew the hose from

the tap.

• Clean the filter in the

hose with a stiff brush.

• Screw the hose back onto the tap. Make sure the

connection is tight.

• Unscrew the hose from the machine. Keep a rag

nearby because some water may flow.

• Clean the filter in the valve with a stiff brush or with

the piece of cloth.

35°

If the machine is exposed to temperatures below 0°C, cer-

tain precautions should be taken.

• Turn off the water tap.

• Unscrew the inlet hose.

• Place the end of the emergency emptying hose and that

of the inlet hose in a bowl placed on the floor and let

water drain out.

• Screw the water inlet hose back on and reposition the

emergency emptying hose after having put the cap on

again.

• When you intend to start the machine up again, make

sure that the room temperature is above 0°C.

Emergency emptying out

If the water is not discharged, proceed as follows to empty

out the machine:

• pull out the plug from the power socket;

• close the water tap;

• if necessary, wait until the water has cooled down;

• open the pump door;

• place a bowl on the floor and place the end of the

emergency emptying hose into the bowl. Remove its

cap. The water should drain by gravity into the bowl.

When the bowl is full, put the cap back on the hose.

Empty the bowl. Repeat the procedure until water stops

flowing out;

• clean the pump if necessary as previously described;

• replace the emergency emptying hose in its seat after

having plugged it;

• screw the pump cover again and close the door.

Important! Every time you drain the water through the

emergency emptying hose you must pour 2 litres of water

into the main wash compartment of the detergent drawer

and then run the drain programme. This will activate the

ECO Valve device avoiding that part of the detergent

remains unused at next washing.

What to do if…

Certain problems are due to lack of simple maintenance or

oversights, which can be solved easily without calling out

an engineer. Before contacting your local Service Centre,

please carry out the checks listed below.

During machine operation it is possible that the red pilot

light of button 5 blinks to indicate that the machine is not

working.

It is possible to recognize the fault machine by the number

of button 5 light flashes. If the number of flashes is differ-

ent from the ones indicated below, this is related to a fault

that you can not solve. In this case, contact your local

Service Centre.

Press simultaneously the buttons 4 and 5 for a few sec-

onds. The red button 5 light will flash for a short time as

described (the green flash is not to be considered) :

• 4 flashes = «The washing machine does not start», fol-

low the corresponding suggestions in «Possible

cause/Solutions» box and restart the programme.

• 1 flash = «The machine does not fill», follow the corre-

sponding suggestions in «Possible cause/Solutions»

box and restart the programme.

• 2 flashes = «The machine does not empty and/or does

not spin», follow the corresponding suggestions in

«Possible cause/Solutions» box and restart the pro-

gramme.

Once the problem has been eliminated, press the button 5

to restart the programme. If after all checks, the problem

persists, contact your local Service Centre.

Problem Possible cause/Solution

The machine does not fill:

The water tap is closed (the button 5 red light blinks).

• Open the water tap.

The inlet hose is squashed or kinked (the button 5 red light blinks).

• Check the inlet hose connection.

The filter in the inlet hose or the inlet valve filter are blocked (the button 5 red

light blinks).

• Clean the water inlet filters. (See "Cleaning the water inlet filters" for more

details).

The door is not properly closed (the button 5 red light blinks).

• Close the door firmly.

The machine does not empty and/or

does not spin:

The drain hose is squashed or kinked (the button 5 red light blinks).

• Check the drain hose connection.

The drain filter is clogged (the button 5 red light blinks).

• Clean the drain filter.

An option or a programme that ends with the water still in the tub or a that

eliminates all the spinning phases has been selected.

• Select the draining or spinning programme.

The laundry is not evenly distributed in the drum.

• Redistribute the laundry.

There is water on the floor:

Too much detergent or unsuitable detergent (creates too much foam) has been

used.

• Reduce the detergent quantity or use another one.

Check whether there are any leaks from one of the inlet hose fittings. It is not

always easy to see this as the water runs down the hose; check to see if it is

damp.

• Check the water inlet hose connection.

The drain or inlet hose is damaged.

• Replace it with a new one.

The cap on the emergency emptying hose has not been replaced or the filter

has not been properly screwed in after cleaning action.

• Refit the cap on the emergency emptying hose or screw the filter fully in.

Unsatisfactory washing results:

Too little detergent or unsuitable detergent has been used.

• Increase the detergent quantity or use another one.

Stubborn stains have not been treated prior to washing.

• Use commercial products to treat the stubborn stains.

The correct temperature was not selected.

• Check if you have selected the correct temperature.

Excessive laundry load.

• Reduce the laundry load.

Problem Possible cause/Solution

The door will not open:

The programme is still running.

• Wait the end of washing cycle.

The door lock has not been released.

• Wait a few minutes before opening the door.

There is water in the drum.

• Select drain or spin programme to empty out the water.

The machine vibrates is noisy:

The transit bolts and packing have not been removed.

• Check the correct installation of the appliance.

The support feet have not been adjusted

• Check the correct levelling of the appliance.

The laundry is not evenly distributed in the drum.

• Redistribute the laundry.

Maybe there is very little laundry in the drum.

• Load more laundry.

Spinning starts late or the machine

does not spin:

The electronic unbalance detection device has cut in because the laundry is

not evenly distributed in the drum. The laundry is redistributed by reverse rota-

tion of the drum. This may happen several times before the unbalance disap-

pears and normal spinning can resume. If, after 10 minutes, the laundry is still

not evenly distributed in the drum, the machine will not spin. In this case, re-

distribute the load manually and select the spin programme.

• Redistribute the laundry.

The load is too small.

• Add more items, redistribute the load manually and then select the spinning

programme.

The machine makes an unusual

noise:

The machine is fitted with a type of motor which makes an unusual noise com-

pared with other traditional motors. This new motor ensures a softer start and

more even distribution of the laundry in the drum when spinning, as well as

increased stability of the machine.

No water is visible in the drum:

Machines based on modern technology operate very economically using very

little water without affecting performance.

If you are unable to identify or solve the problem, contact

our service centre. Before telephoning, make a note of the

model, serial number and purchase date of your machine:

the Service Centre will require this information.

The cotton 60 °C economy and cotton 40 °C economy are

the standard cotton programmes for normally soiled cot-

ton laundry. They are suitable to clean normally soiled

cotton laundry and they are the most efficient programmes

in terms of combined energy and water consumption for

washing that type of cotton laundry.

They agree with EN60456.

The actual water temperature may differ from the de-

clared cycle temperature.

Installation

Unpacking

All transit bolts and packing must be removed before us-

ing the appliance.

You are advised to keep all transit devices so that they can

be refitted if the machine ever has to be transported again.

18

www.zanussi.com

After removing all the

packaging, carefully lay

machine on it's back to re-

move the polystyrene base

from the bottom.

Remove the power supply

cable and the hoses from

the hose holders on the

rear of the appliance.

Unscrew the three bolts

with the supplied spanner.

Slide out the relevant plas-

tic spacers.

Fill the smaller upper hole and the two large ones with

the corresponding plastic plug caps supplied in the bag

containing the instruction booklet.

Positioning

Install the machine on a flat hard floor. Make sure that air

circulation around the machine is not impeded by carpets,

rugs etc. Check that the machine does not touch the wall

or other kitchen units.

Level the washing ma-

chine by raising or lower-

ing the feet. The feet may

be tight to adjust as they

incorporate a self locking

nut, but the machine

MUST be level and stable.

If necessary, check the

setting with a spirit level.

Any necessary adjustment

can be made with a span-

ner.

Accurate levelling prevents vibration, noise and displace-

ment of the machine during operation.

Caution! Never place cardboard, wood or similar

materials under the machine to compensate for any

unevenness in the floor. After having levelled the

appliance, tighten the lock nuts.

Raising the appliance

Suspended wooden floors are particularly susceptible to

vibration.

To help prevent vibration we recommend you place a wa-

terproof wood panel, at least 15 mm thick under the appli-

ance, secured to at least 2 floor beams with screws, the

wood panel must extend beyond the front feet.

If possible install the appliance in one of the corners of

the room, where the floor is more stable.

Water inlet

Warning! This appliance must be connected to a

cold water supply

Caution! Before connecting up the appliance to new

pipework or to pipework that has not been used for

some time, run off a reasonable amount of water to flush

out any debris that may have collected

Caution! Do not use the hose from your previous

appliance to connect to water supply.

19

www.zanussi.com

Connect the hose to a tap

with a 3/4” thread. Always

use the hose supplied with

the appliance.

35°

45°

The other end of the inlet hose which connects to the

appliance can be turned as showed in the picture.

Do not place the inlet hose downwards. Angle the hose

to the left or right depending on the position of your

water tap. Set the hose correctly by loosening the ring

nut. After positioning the inlet hose, be sure to tighten

the ring nut again to prevent leaks.

Caution! The inlet hose must not be lengthened. If it

is too short and you do not wish to move the tap,

you will have to purchase a new, longer hose specially

designed for this type of use.

Water drainage

The end of the drain hose can be positioned in three ways:

Hooked over the edge of a

sink using the plastic hose

guide supplied with the

machine.

In this case, make sure the end cannot come unhooked

when the machine is emptying. This could be done by

tying it to the tap with a piece of string or attaching it to

the wall.

In a sink drain pipe branch. This branch must be above

the trap so that the bend is at least 60 cm above the

ground.

Directly into a drain pipe at a height of not less than 60

cm and not more than 90 cm. The end of the drain hose

must always be ventilated, i.e. the inside diameter of the

drain pipe must be larger than the outside diameter of

the drain hose. The drain hose must not be kinked.

Building in

This appliance has been designed to be built into the

kitchen furniture. The recess should have the dimensions

shown in picture A.
